Bird house plans?

The woodworker who intends to build bird houses plans the project with a number of things in mind.

One of the primary concerns should be the species of bird the house is to accommodate. Wren bird house plans vary greatly from blue bird house plans which bear little resemblance to purple martin bird house plans.  Each species has unique needs and preferences which the woodworker should take into consideration.

Simple bird house plans make a great starter project, and are an excellent and rewarding project for kids.  There is always demand for well constructed bird houses at craft fairs and farmer’s markets, so it is easy to recover the cost of supplies and frequently turn a profit.  What better way to introduce woodworking to today’s youth!

Experienced craftsmen can turn decorative bird house plans into magnificent works of art.  Imagine the pleasure of strolling through a garden and spying a well crafted work of art being used as a safe haven for a family of Gold Finches.

With a bit of research a number of free bird house plans can be found on the internet, but a bit of caution must be used, paying particular attention to the points above.  The purpose of a bird house is of course to house birds…so if the free plans you intend to use have not taken into account the needs of the bird, your lovely project may never be used by its intended audience.

As an experienced craftsman, I would highly recommend purchasing plans that are designed with a particular species in mind.  As with any project, if you start with an accurate set of plans, the resulting product will be both beautiful and functional.

Have some fun this weekend and create a lovely home for our fine feathered friends…and what a wonderful bonus should you happen to inspire a child to take up woodcraft!

    Constructing our own woodwork product is always satisfying. Yup i agree with you.Each species requires diferent models of birdhouse. It also depends on the surrounding area as well. Squirrels might come into the picture and snatch the bird food.Nice blog..and friends, keep in mind if possible, reduce the uasge of treated wood as it contains chemicals that might affect the birds’ health.
